What products did you used to love but, sadly, it appears they no longer make them?

I used to love Caress Nature's Silk(the original scent) body lotion and Bath & Body Works Orange Blossom scent. I'm sure I'm think of more.

What do you miss?

Wonder Balls! I miss those hollow candy balls, with the little candy pieces inside. I used to love those things.

I can't think of names of things off hand, but I've gotten kinda paranoid. As soon as I find something I just adore, it's like the company does away with it!

Body Shop's Green Apple Body Wash, actually anybody's Green Apple Body Wash. Nobody makes Green apple anymore, and it's my favourite scent.

Metal spirograph - I used to love spirographs, and would love to use them now in art, but the plastic one's just don't cut it.

The game stock ticker - great for every budding capitalist.

I'm sure there are more, I'll come back as I think of them.

Hope I'm not violating forum rules here, but The Vermont Country Store stocks a lot of these hard-to-find items. It's one of my favorite vendors! They have some really cool stuff.

Oh, yeah, there was that Pepsi Light or Free or whatever in the 1980s that was lemon-flavored. It was great!

Hmm....that I don't know. I'm sure they'd know at the pet store though. IIRC their original purpose is to be sold as food. Poor Sea Monkeys.
